A Day ia the House DevOted TO this
f'as age of R.Ocal Ellis.

Day ia the House Devoted 10 the
Ffas age of local Bills
The lull came after the storm-as was to
be eXpected-and the session of the house
yesterday was as quiet and uneventful as a
convention of deaf and dumb delegates
Mr.. Donnelly was absent during q large
portion of the day and Mr.. Potter moved
about with a subdued and humble de.
meanor, seemingly exhausted with his eX-
ertionS or the day before. The members
wore tired expression also. and took little
interest in the proceedings. They were
listless and Indifferent. and left their seats
frequently and strolled into the cloak rooms
or about the lobbieS. There were
number of absentees, not more
than sixty-two members answering at any
roll call The general apathy and small
attendance was made preteXt for suS-
pending the rules and passing unimportant
local bills. and considerable progress was
made in this direction. There were no de-
bates ard no bill of general public interest
cons ,dered or discussed. 1t was dull day
in every respect. with not a single feature
to relieve the monotony. The Ramsey
county delegation made a good record,
placing several important local bills in posi-
ton for third reading and final passage.
The only features of the session exciting
more than the ordinary degree of interest,
were the discussion in regard to the season
for shooting prairie chickens and the indus
trious effort on the part Of Mr. Sevatson to
explain the meaning and effect of his bill
relating to service by domestic animals.

THE STATE Of TRADE.

Business still Goes On.

Business still Goes On.
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-R. G. Dim s. Co.. in
their Weekly Trade Review says: Panics
abroad and strikes at home have tested the
strength OF all the markets during the past
week. News, in the strict sense, does not
afford much evidence that war impends; but
rumors and apprehension have depressed
stocks and lifted grain. Thus tested, the
markets have shown unexpected solidness
Foreign unloading OF American stocks has
caused but moderate decline in prices
while even in the grain market
the advance has been conserva-
tive and limited, and other markets have
changed but little Probably grain would
have risen more had not the great strikes eX-
erted restraining influence. Transporters
are making freight more freely than week
ago. The dry goods trade, though affected
by uncertainty as to transportation, Still i'm
proves with respect to cottons, while the hes
itaton in woolens increases. Boston sales of
wool are 20 per cent. larger than last year,
with prices barely steady. The imports for
1856 were 313, 253, los pounds besides 4,43l,-
$50 pounds waste and 1880 203 OF yarn. Iron
is helped by revival in ship building, $3.50
being quoted at Philadelphia for No. 1, and
an advance is expected at Pittsburg.
Coke has advanced 56 cents per
ton. Western nailmakers will ad--
vance the price from $3.50 to S2.65
and the window glass association has raised
prices to per cent. Oil production was
263S1, 500 barrels last year, against 20, 776,041
in 1855. The Trunk line eastbound tom
mage last year was 11,236, ,102, against H..
354, DOL in 1855, and the westbound was 2,O32,-
576, against 2,045,U25. The money market
is little higher to rates than week ago,
but well supplied. and foreign exchange
moves up to S4.S9. The sales of cotton
last week were large. with prices de-
pressed, but fully recovering. Wheat
advanced I14c and cern 115c with moderate
dealings. Pork and lard slightly advanced
and the New York cattle market was shade
stronger. The business failures during the
last seven days numbers, for the United
States 229, for Canada 81, total of 26l, COM
